No, not at all.
The Plato crater was formed before lava flowed into the Mare Imbrium. Plato crater is a impact crater, while lava flows are a result of volcanic activity. The lava flows in Mare Imbrium are believed to have occurred after the impact event that formed the Plato crater.
Mare Ingenii, the Sea of Cleverness.
Tycho Crater was formed after Mare Nubium. Mare Nubium, a large basaltic plain on the Moon, was created during the early lunar volcanic activity, while Tycho, a prominent impact crater, formed around 1080 million years ago, which is significantly later than the formation of Mare Nubium. Tycho's distinctive rays and features are a result of its relatively younger impact event.
A mare is a smooth, dark area on the surface of the moon. A crater is a huge hole caused by a meteor or meteorite. Hope that satisfies you! If not come back soon and i'll have another answer.
Crater Tycho was formed first. It was created around 109 million years ago, during the period of the Moon's history known as the Copernican era. Mare Nubium, a lunar mare or plain, formed later as a result of volcanic activity around 3.9 billion years ago during the Imbrian era.
A lunar mare is Latin for sea. The dark and relatively featureless lunar plains are called seas, because ancient observers thought they contained water. Hence why they are called "seas".
Mare Imbrium, Latin for "Sea of Showers" or "Sea of Rains", is a vast lunar mare. It was created when lava flooded a giant crater that formed when a massive object hit the Moon.See realted link for more information.
they are rays
Please see related link. looks exactly like Pokemon crater XD
They are called "rays" and were created by ejecta (material thrown out of the crater by the meteor impact).

If you like crater, it is back, along with indigo
